The perfect trip has been planned, the equipment has been clean and ready to pack, payment has been made for the outdoor adventure of a life time and suddenly the world changes because a forest fire has destroyed the camp or your mother-in-law was just rushed to the hospital. Life happens when we least expect it. Travel insurance can help.
Someone once said the "life happens while we're waiting for something else to happen." And that is especially true when planning an outdoor adventure. You've booked the outfitter, paid for your airline tickets and now something unforeseen happens and you have to cancel your adventure and dream about it for a future date. However, reality sets in and you realize that the airline tickets and the payment for your guide and camp are non-refundable.
Travel insurance, with it's trip cancellation coverage, can help lessen your risk of financial loss. It can also help if you suffer a medical emergency while in the field and need a medical evacuation.
